Busy Saturday, whether it snows or not.
Yup, the Polar Bear Plunge annual event is going to be this weekend at Sandy Point Park near Annapolis, Maryland. This is when a bunch of foolish people raise money for Special Olympics by agreeing to jump in to the ice cold Chesapeake [...]

Not much of an update for the blog today or tonight. I should talk about the likely frost the DC northern region is going to get, but I’ve been working on video lately. Had to move some files around a bit to free up some capture space (video files are huge). I [...]
